http://www.leejones.tk/blog/wordpress/?p=564#commentsThu, 31 May 2007 12:20:00 +0000http://leejones.tk/blog/?p=208Apologies for the lack of updates and inspiration recently. I’ll perhaps have some time over the weekend to write a post. In the meantime, if you have 20 minutes to spare I’d highly recommend two important new essays, one on climate change and one on UK housing policy. The former is probably the best thing I have ever read on the climate change issue, because it takes a very broad and even look at the issue, asking why it has come to dominate political discourse and inquiring into the links between broad social trends and scientific paradigms. The latter is a stinging indictment of the failure of New Labour to deliver one of the most basic requirements of life in modern society — access to affordable, decent housing for all who need it.

http://www.leejones.tk/blog/wordpress/?p=555#respondMon, 12 Mar 2007 22:17:00 +0000http://leejones.tk/blog/?p=197I’ve another article out, this time on the effect of the climate change politics of fear on the minds of young people. Also check out a surprisingly good op-ed piece in the Telegraph by Janet Daley, which calls for more open debate about the science of climate change before we embark on policies to restrict development in the third world or the hard-won luxuries of the poor in the developed world.
